Dr. Charity,
I could never imagine giving anyone enough thanks for the compassion, understanding, and blessings you and your wonderful staff have given to me. You have reached down deep into my heart and found the smile I had as a child that has been lost and hidden for 40 plus years.

The gift of compassion and understanding you have shown in your work with me when out of pain and fear I have let my teeth go in to ruin in the past, you have encouraged and allowed me to heal years and years of fear and shame. For all of my child and adult life I have been ashamed of my smile, my teeth and how and what people see, we live in a world of instant judgment and shaming is a tradition I grew up with. You have removed this pain and with your patience and understanding of my private needs given me the future, an appreciation of myself I have never had and the ability to now for the first time in my life take a positive appreciation for myself and how I look.

You have given me the smile that beautiful teeth can give but more importantly you have given my heart a far greater gift, you have given me the beauty that was taken from me as a child, a gift that now in my adult years will last me all my life.

I can not thank you and your wonderful staff enough for all the blessings you have given; you have changed my life.

Thanks to you I will have years and years of smiles to come, and more are the countless smiles I will get back, as now the world smiles back to me. With deep gratitude and appreciation, your friend always, Gary Butler.
